Long USDJPY: Long-Term TL Support + Fib Cluster + EngulfingUSDJPY has formed a bullish engulfing candle on the 1HR chart, indicating possible upcoming bullish movement. The candle is supported by a strong 12-month-long trendline that price has respected 3 times previously dating back to January, 2015. At the PRZ, a bullish pinbar has formed on the daily chart. The wick falls on a series of fib levels from structure lows to structure highs, adding to the probability of support in that area. Entry is placed at the broken horizontal resistance on the 1HR chart with SL at the .886 retracement and target at the unhit monthly pivot for January, 2016. This setup yields a R/R of about 5.6.

Long GBPJPY: Bat + Crab Complete at Weekly Trendline SupportGBPJPY has entered the PRZ of two bullish patterns on the daily chart. The PRZ aligns with both horizontal and trendline support which may add to the potential for reversal at this level. Multiple unhit monthly and weekly pivots sit above price and may help pull price toward target. To add to bullish bias, MACD has produced bullish divergence and RSI is oversold. Entry is placed at crab completion with SL below horizontal support and targets at the unhit January, 2015 pivot and the 50% retracement of the bullish bat CD leg.

Long CADJPY: Crab + Bat + AB=CD + Fan + Pivots + SR + DivergenceCADJPY has entered the PRZ of a series of bullish harmonic patterns in an area of strong support. The PRZ, which is formed by the combined reversal zones of a bullish bat and crab, may also be tested near the .5 Fibonacci speed fan line for an added level of time-based support. On a larger TF, a bullish AB=CD pattern is complete in the center of the PRZ. There is also a weekly .618 Fibonacci retracement level from structure low to structure high in this area. Five missed weekly pivots and one missed monthly pivot sit above price to add to the bullish bias. In addition to all of these factors, bullish divergence is printed on both the MACD and RSI oscillators. Entry is placed at the .618 retracement level with a stop loss below the S/R zone. Target is placed at .382CD (AB=CD pattern) which coincides precisely with the nearest missed weekly pivot and significant structure highs. This setup yields a R/R of about 3:1.

EURUSD Short: 3 Bats Align in Tight PRZ at TL ResistanceYesterday I published a EURUSD short on a bearish bat pattern. The bat has hit TP1 and is retesting the PRZ. If you missed the trade, this is a great opportunity to enter. A rare opportunity has presented itself where 3 bat patterns have aligned within a very tight reversal zone. The PRZ aligns with trendine touching the X points which may add resistance in this area. We also have very strong bearish RSI and MACD divergence with RSI being overbought as well. Target is placed at the bottom of the PRZ with SL at 1.13XA (yellow bat) and TP at the missed weekly pivot and .5 Fib level.
